Yeh that's all I used on my 5 footer as well. As long as its put together right and supported properly its fine. It's about 60 cms high my other stand was 90 cms high

Is it screwed in there how are the vertical supports attached to the bracing ?

Once it's all together it should be fine. Mine was square once I got the weight on it. I was worried but turned out perfect. I have made three the exact same way and they are all good. Ill get photos as we build the one this weekend.

first I had one, then two then three popped up, 90gal, 40gal, 20 gal

when you go behind the scene, it's all DIY,
diy LED hood, PVC Plumbing, Plants, etc..

Wow that is amazing. The father in law has a tank in his wall as well. I know what u mean about getting more already started designing the second breeding rack lol.
Is that saltwater if so how hard is it really? I have wanted a little nano but a bit scared about giving it a go.

hey
nope it's freshwater, I simulate a marine tank.
I've done every type of tank possible, so I decided to show people you can have a FW tank that POPS!
Yea, salt water tanks take a lot more maintenance, lots of parameters that have to be kept or else bad things happen! when I had a marine tank, eventually I converted them back to FW. after having a baby I didn't have time for the fish as much as before.

check out this link, I show how I design it.
maybe you can get some ideas for your tanks.
a lot of what I do is DIY.
